Tim, Strange the pdf version used to be http://postgis.refractions.net/docs/postgis.pdf but I guess things got reshuffled with the new documentation effort. Maybe Paul can put a link to the current 1.3.3 somewhere. Anyrate hopefully we'll have the pdf version back in line at some point.
There is a lot of effort currently going on to try to improve the docs. The 1.4 is very in flux, but you can get a sense of how the new layout will be by looking at the section 7 work in progress for 1.4 http://postgis.refractions.net/documentation/manual-svn/ch07.html The plan is to have a page for each function with examples and graphics. Then have accompnaying pdf version also automatically built. Kevin Neufeld setup the basic structure for the new doc layout and also has an automated build that updates the html online docs as changes are being made. Very cool. Hope that helps, Regina -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tim Bowden Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2008 9:24 PM To: PostGIS Users Discussion Subject: Re: [postgis-users] PDF version of manual? It appears to be no longer there, but instead we have the manual for the next as yet unreleased point version of postgis: 1.3.4. It is good to see an open source project giving documentation suitable attention and keeping it up to date (unlike many open source projects). I'm surprised though that the documentation is released before the code. I suspect that's unprecedented.
